I have the VIN for the above LHD car. It is a pre launch model with a VIN 001***.
I was going to post about this car but as the bidding had just crept over £1000 I didn't in case anyone was bidding.
Anyway, it is an S reg and was more than likely built in December 1998.
I'm sure Reebs may be able to look it up.
